9:06 pm
i want to pull up something that the only commander to survive. the warsaw ghetto uprising mark ableman. one said he said that the jewish resistance fought to quote, not allow the germans alone to pick the time and place of our death is it may be also that heroism and that fight for dignity in the face of pure barbarity. that were commemorating today definitely, yes. it is one of these great human stories of heroism and of coverage of love and of fur, to stand up against perpetrators and murderous. and this story has to be told all over the world again and again. and as maryan to ski, the president of social committee, who was the 1st speaker today repeated in the famous sentence of

9:08 pm
a signal of understanding of human behavior. and so this human signal to day on this place and on this day was very, very moving for all the people who attendance and all the people who understood the message of seas. 3 men who as the president of the central council of here's here and germany said in an interview that jewish resistance during world war 2 didn't really play much of a role and germany culture of remembrance. why do you think that it will be cause so people don't know much about the story. so the resistance which share a link to the boss, so ghetto, which i link to the resistance movement in the camps. and this is a, has a lot of work to be done to tell the story with a lot of i tried to do this as a writer and to,
9:09 pm

9:15 pm
which is actually forbidden and in which is which are of course, are very damaging and you'll find them in houses. you'll find their mean field. so he does so affects the work of a farmers are as you mentioned. so this is a danger with which a ukraine a will have to deal for decades to calm probably, and this is why ukraine calls on international help to help the mining operations. i want to talk to you about some other news coming out of ukraine to day because the country announced that it has received the 1st period air defense systems from the west, germany and the netherlands. how important are they to fend of russian attacks? it is of paramount importance, nico. 1 because the current air defense system are simply not sufficient to or to defend a country to protect their country against all the attacks. the hybrid attacks launched by, by the russian army we're talking about misses, we're talking about drones. are we talking about all kinds of things that aircraft
9:16 pm
also a launching does me size a cruise me size as well. and for that ukraine needs a very, very efficient defense. in fact, departure or missile air defense system had been asked for by ukraine 2 years ago. to the united states back there and it had seemed impossible. birds are all exceed ethnic of the defense minister of ukraine said, well, you see, nothing is impossible. and now ukrainian skies are a bit safer with that 1st patch here. i'd system which arrived today. germany had pledged one system together with the netherlands, which are the netherlands, will bring parts of that air system as well as a mi size to go. a wizard than the united states had pledged another system. so that will be 2 altogether. and the, the allies of ukraine had also trained, sold years ukraine and sold years to use those systems. they are very much welcome and very much needed here in ukraine where air read the las continue even to night
9:17 pm

$1000000000.00 will talk with the hood. buick carol was for you with that a little of boiler we're all will read that he is a live more will nauseous leaf alicia 30 people working here before the war. but since then his business lost half a 1000000 euros for a small company that's devastating. yeah, it was a relief when the russians withdrew from the hockey region hearing, but they left a threat to the future, buried in the ground. what that they wasn't sabrina via a more video savoy. i knew so many are, well if you will fit that got cut off my you see, i still know what the, the crown you follow up more not look at the harder with the ground on it should be plowing and planting is too dangerous to move heavy equipment on i mean for that simple to conquer what nila was all over know we stood for which auto mob which it was it came through to please oh,
9:19 pm

well known blood v as in just not in my life. they're fairly then bull in there with hello lucy. despite the danger, he says he will continue to work. and as he shows us to his own demining, these are just a few of the things he found on the field. they yelled at me f barrow and thumb t. someone who's from the figure, low gradient, barely in the bus, laid me at the 4th or 5th bureau off in fields across the region. demining teams like this from the halo trust are doing what they can to prevent this from happening. they're finding many different dangerous auntie personnel minds with pressure blades on the person. oh mine bonding fragmentation. ah, mind's eye grenades on trip wires and we are on find in olds. what's a cluster munition used any grain on the vehicle winds in plastic and metal cases,
9:21 pm
they estimate that 30 to 40 percent of ukraine needs to be checked before being declared safe. we have people that not being able to walk on their own land on their own yards comfort picnic or walk freely because of the minds. in the other hand, they can't cultivate their land. and which is like the most cases, the 1st source of income for the family. all those scenarios can be in for structure areas that are again contaminated just in ukraine. we are seeing the number of accidents increasing no matter how long the war less, the danger of minds will last much longer. farmer all ask your mom has been waiting for help, but it's no seriously considering trying to clear his fields himself. if he can't get the season started, he says people will leave and never come back. so don's
9:22 pm
army has agreed to a 24 hour cease fire after a paramilitary group are as f earlier announced its commitment to a truce on social media. however, there are media reports of continued gun fire across the capitol cartoon that comes after a ceasefire. agreed yesterday between the 2 factions collapsed, 5 days of deadly fighting has killed hundreds of people and devastated areas of the capitol. cartoon, the r f f and the armed forces seized power together in a joint group in 2021. but differences on how to govern, let detentions that erupted and violence on saturday. madness she is a journalist covering the region with a focus on saddam. he joins us now from cairo. mac, it seems the cease fire has already failed again. why? yeah, it's, it's the $1000000.00 question. i think there's a number of questions that come out of that i don't think just want to answer. but one question that arises from it is, how much control does bra and unity are mom,
9:23 pm
mom of them. who's the other? i'm sorry, here. i want to control the actually have courses, you know, over the last 4 or 5 years, which we saw multiple different political processes and faces in sudan since that date are over. she fell and april 2019. both of these forces, you know, part of their rhetoric, in order to try to kill the western partners, was that they are legitimate and more credible institution right now. neither one was credible. both are not able to control their forces. it seems or worse. so there's not a political well actually to follow the rules of international law. so either way you put it, it's quite damning on both of them. yeah. and then things like highly complicated scenario to make the fire of any sort work. do you see any scenario where that could happen? yeah, i mean it's, it's less than it's going to come to a point where, you know,
9:24 pm
see spires themselves. it's, it's a, it's also a complex situation. while it's incredibly, incredibly important. in often what happens in conflict is sometimes parties where they're thinking, but they need to restructure or reorganize. this is when they'll feel like they're in a position to concede to a ceasefire. and um, that's especially the case when you have 2 adversaries that are so, ah, hell, bent on, on essentially, you know, defeating and, and vanquishing the other. so this is, this is probably one scenario. the other scenario is if one of them gets a considerable upper hand and then suddenly you see the power dynamics change. and pressure can be exerted more one individual while the other one will have to, you know, navigate within, you know, the losses that they had suffered at that time. perhaps, could you cease fire that arise from that new power dynamic? ah, but you know, i think the, the thing to consider here is that when
9:25 pm
a sees fire does eventually come on, you know, we also have to prepare for what both forces are going to try to do militarily, to know escalate the conflict when fighting resumes. again, um, but yeah, there are potential scenarios, but as it looks right now, i know is it's quite difficult considering a whether or not they've controlled their forces and be just considering the power dynamic still seem to be relatively you know, relatively on balance between the 2 forces at the mall. yeah, thank you very much. that was journalist nancy joining us from cairo about the situation unfolding incident. thank you so much. liberal dick. and finally, a french climber has scaled a 38th story skyscraper in paris to protest changes to the country's retirement laws. residents looked on in our as 60 year old. a long will bear climb the
